They've shut down airspace around military bases for no reason?
- ndileas 2y agoThe military doesn't magically know what's going on better than random civilians, and in many cases is risk averse and paranoid, subject to hysterias and fads just as much as everyone else. They do have some non-public sources of data like air search radars. All this to say, temporary airspace shutdowns don't convey any useful signal about the existence of uaps or foreign drones.

It's not "Eyerainian Turrists" And it is certainly not aliens. It's dumbasses flying DJI Phantoms near an airport.
